I wasn’t going to buy a #Nintendo64. But I did. It’s glorious. Playing this stuff how it’s supposed to on a CRT TV. Awesome. Got Wave Race 64, Pilot Wings 64, NBA Hangtime and a F1 race game.

The nostalgia with WR64 is huge. As a kid I would always hang around the game store to play on their demo unit.

So, a thought.

In Banjo Kazooie, on the #N64 , you should theoretically be able to reach the final Gruntilda fight without the Beak Bomb attack. Which is required for beating her.

You need 96 out of 100 jiggies in total, and I think the Beak Bomb is only required for 3. 2 in Freezeasy Peaks and 1 in Gobi's Desert. Oh! There is a 4th! The Grunty Switch for Freezeasy requires it! So yeah, unless I am forgetting any other jiggies that require the Beak Bomb...

What would happen if you did get to that phase of the fight without that move?

Is there some dialogue about you lacking the move to beat her?
I am super curious, but do I really want to a third run of Banjo Kazooie in the space of a year? Don't get me wrong, love the game, if I was to run it again, i probably would use some Action Replay nonsense to get to Grunty fight.

Basically, anything that doesn't require me to 100% Rusty Bucket Bay a third time!

Recently learned about the #SummerCart64 for #Nintendo64 and given that it’s so cheap makes me think about (finally) adding an #N64 to my collection. I probably shouldn’t. I’d likely not play it a bunch either. But I have very fond memories of playing it as a kid in the stores on timed demo pods haha. I also still have my #CRT TV for my retro consoles!

#WaveRace64 was my absolute favorite. Bought it in the WiiU eShop back when that was still a thing.

And while at it, you can also check the #N64 version: github.com/RosieSapphir... #retrodev #retrogamedev #gamedev #homebrew #retrogaming #indiegamedev #nintendo64
